Utilizing road mortality records and temperature data from the Taipei metropolitan area, Taiwan, the study employed a time-stratified case-crossover design. Leveraging a distributed lag non-linear model with a conditional quasi-Poisson model, it pioneers the use of daily minimum temperature as a ...
Time-stratified case-crossover design with conditional logistic regression models was used to investigate the associations between ambient temperature variations and AIDS-related mortality. Results Each 1 °C elevated in DTR was linked with a 5.28 % [95 % confidence intervals (CIs): 1.61, 9.08] ...
We used a time-stratified case-crossover design study in which cases served as their controls to investigate the possible association between ambient air pollutant concentrations and hospitalisations for anxiety disorders. This approach allowed for the adjustment of time-invariant characteristics, including...
A time-stratified case-crossover design was conducted to evaluate the relationship between urban gaseous air pollution and EHVs for hypertension. Temperature and relative humidity were controlled for. Results In the single air pollutant models, a 10 μg/m3 increase in SO2 and NO2 were ...

data from 138,015 singleton births in 16 hospitals in Benin, Malawi, Tanzania and Uganda, we investigated the association between extreme heat and early perinatal deaths, including antepartum and intrapartum stillbirths, and deaths within 24h after birth using a time-stratified case–crossover ...
case-crossover design utilizes the ID as a stratum,comparing individuals to themselves at different times.To examine whether the events are associated with a particular exposure,it compares exposure level in the day when the health event occurs(case day)with the levels in nearby days(control days...
MATERNAL exposurePREGNANT womenAIR pollutionA few studies have explored the relationship between air pollution exposure and the risk of birth defects; however, the ozone-related (O3) effects on preconception and first-trimester exposures are still unknown. In this time-stratified case-crossover study,...
case‐crossover analysispregnancy outcomespreterm birthBackground Air pollution is linked to preterm birth (PTB), but existing studies are primarily focused on chronic exposures, conducted in areas with moderate pollution, and/or subject to confounding. Objectives We investigated short‐term associations ...
The investigation sought to determine whether there is an association between short-term ambient ozone (O3) level exposure and daily hospital admissions for depression in Taipei from 2009 to 2013 using a time-stratified case-crossover design. In our single-pollutant model (with no adjustment for ...
